. One of the 1 rgest crowd ¢ ever gathered 


lin Mendelssohn Hall for ,a: picture sale 
twas there last night, attracted by the col- 
‘lection of the late Henry. Graves, which 
“was sold under the,auspices of the Ameri- 
ican Art Galleries. There were.only forty- 
mine pictures in all, but Thomas HB. Kirby, 
in opening the sale, referred to them as. 
‘Possessing “the highest average and the 
most beautiful quality of any collection) 


lof pictures ever’/sold in this ee 


‘The pictures brought a total of $233,2 

‘It Was not’ known who bought many 4 

the most important pictures, as the buying 

jwas in many cases through agents. | 
* She Shearing,” by Millet, brought 

| the highest price of the sale—$27,500. It 

Was @ picture showing the corner of a 


(farmyard, surrounded by  red-roofed. 
‘buildings, shaded by two trees in the) 
jeentre. A flock of sheep stand near a 


fence, and a blue-smocked peasant is. 
Making them to a man and woman. who. 
lene doing the shearing. “It is a. picture) 
lwhich has been: in many. ‘collections, be- 
ginning in ‘that of Gavet,. Paris, and, | 
vafterta: varied history, ‘reaching. the col- | 
lection ‘of Quincy .A.’ Shaw, in Boston, it] 
Was later for A time in the private col- | 
lection of William Schaus in New York. 
Ipcott & Fowles, who bought ‘it last night, 
are supposed to have acted for a well- 
known public man. 

) There were a number of Rousseaus in} 
the collection, which brought varying 
Prices, from $1,250, given by J. R. An- 
drews for‘ Autumn Evéning in Sologne,’? | 
up to $14,000, the second highest price of 
the evening, given by Herman Schaus for 
* Summer Morning on the Oise,”’ 

Another | Rousseau which brought a 
good price was.“ Lisiere @un_ bois 
Coupé,” which went to Edward Cahill for 
$17,000, A little added history was given 
about this last evening. It began life! 
after leaving Rousseau with the Duke of! 
Orleans, son of Louis Phillippe, who 
bought it of the painter, and in whose 
possession it remained during his life. 

A Corot and a Diaz also brought good. 
prices, ‘“‘An Old Mill at Ville D’Avray,”’ 
by the former painter, bringing $13,500, | 
and “ Hdge of the Forest,” by the latter, 
$13,000. “The return of the Flock,” which | 
Was presented as a masterpiece of Jules 
Dupré; and which was started at $5,000, | 
climbed by short steps and reached only | 
$9,100, *‘ Evening Twilight,’ by Dupré, a 
picture inscribed on the back of the panel, | 
“A Madam Heloise * * * son vieux) 
ami, Jules Dupre,” brought $8,700. 


“ The Flock of Sheep,” a very beautiful | 
Mauve, 4 water color, sold for $13,200. 
This was a picture the bids for which 
{raveled at a rapid rate. It was started | 
at $5,000, jumped immediately to $6,000, 
then $7, 000, ran by shorter jumps to $9,400, 
and thea.to $10,000, It went more slowly 
up to $13,006, and was apparently going | 
tor that’ unlucky number when after a 


long wait two bids of $100 came one after } 
the other, while the big gathering in the 
fiall laughed. Preyer, a London picture 
dealer, was one of the bidders on the 
Mauve,

PAYSAGE 


A DELICATE little picture, showing a stretch of velvety lawn, dotted here 
and there with fruit trees, and traversed from left to right by a narrow foot- 
path, across which walks a woman in a vivid scarlet skirt. On the left the 
ground slopes upward, and on the slight ridge thus formed stands a large 
building with a tall tower. To the right a smaller house shows embowered 
among the trees, its white walls and gray slate roof looking cool and invit- 
ing under the flood of sunshine which pours from out a deep blue sky. The 
coloring is brilliant and the painting miniature-like in its delicacy of touch 
and accuracy of detail.

THE SPORTSMEN 


IN a broad tree-dotted meadow, a part of which is used for the cultivation 
of vegetables, two men stand talking to a young boy. Both carry shotguns, 
and are evidently in search of game. They gaze earnestly into the distance, 
and one of them, with upraised hand, shades his eyes from the glare of the 
sun. The boy is pointing out where the quarry has lit, and near by their 
dog stands eager to be off. The view extends, bathed in sunshine, to the 
blue horizon, and in the middle distance is a glimpse of the waters of a nar- 


row river.

A youne man stands beside a large portfolio 
which has been carelessly thrown on the floor, 
- holding in his hand a piece of music, from which 
he is singing lustily. His posture is somewhat 

ae theatrical, as he stands with one foot advanced, 
ai i Re head and body thrown back, and both hands 
Pi i - upraised to mark the cadences of his voice. He is 
richly dressed in the style of the early Oy ancecntlt century, in white silk 
doublet and knee breeches; a wide ruff is round his neck, a broad sash of 
ae si white silk round his waist, and his knees are girt with ribbons. His dark 
spe hair falls in long ringlets about his shoulders, and his whole air is that of a 
__wealthy dilettante of the period.

GIOVANNI BATTISTA QUADRONI 


1848— 
THE NATURALIST 


AN elderly man in a tall beaver hat, pink tail-coat and knee breeches, stands 
with an expression of disgust on his face in a rough patch of ground, beside 
a thistle as tall as himself. That he is a naturalist, or rather an entomologist, 
is shown by his butterfly net, which lies on the ground beside him, and his 
collecting box, which hangs, wide open, by his side. A fox slinks away on 
the left, with a little dog snapping at his heels, and a brace of partridges fly 
off with shouts of clamorous terror. He has evidently disturbed an impend- 
ing tragedy, and is as much startled at the resultant outcry as are the 
principals themselves.

THE SULTAN AT PRAYER 


THE picture shows the corner of a Mohammedan mosque, on the tessellated 
pavement of which stands an old Arab with a flowing white beard, his eyes 
and hands upraised in the attitude of prayer. He is clad in a long loose robe 
of blue, girt at the waist by a broad sash, and wears over it a long fur- 
lined coat. On his head is the green turban of a hadji, which can only | 
be worn by those who have made the pilgrimage to the Prophet’s tomb at 
Mecca, while his feet are bare, in accordance with Mohammedan ritual. Be- 
hind him, sitting cross-legged, is a figure in a flowing robe, with a tall conical 
hat on his head, and in the background, beside a lofty column, a poorly clad 
man raises to his lips a cup of water taken from a large jar near by.

THE ARTIST’S MODEL 


THE picture shows a corner of Geéréme’s 
studio, with the plaster model of a statue of a 
woman, almost finished, standing on a rough 
wooden platform. The artist’s model stands 


with her back to the spectator, casting a linen . 
cloth over the effigy. She is quite nude, the pink a white de her flesh 

affording a pleasing contrast to the dull gray of the statue. On the floor, 
close by, the sculptor Géréme washes his tools in a bucket of water, placing 
them to dry on an upturned box beside him, and around the walls are hung 
suits of armor, model ships and other paraphernalia of a studio.

JEAN JACQUES HENNER 


1829—1905 
GIRL WITH THE RED HOOD 


ONE of those studies of women, temperamental, mysterious and elusive, 
suggestive of the spirit rather than the flesh, in which this artist finds the 
expression of his ideals. It is the half-length portrait of a young woman who 
sits facing the spectator, her right elbow supported upon a table, her cheek 
resting lightly upon the fingers of the right hand. A cloak of scarlet cloth is 
thrown around her shoulders and over her head, drawn forward and fastened 
closely beneath the chin, framing an oval face, dark-complexioned, with a 
mobile mouth and well-formed nose, surmounted by a wealth of dark chest- 
nut hair. Her deep brown eyes are full of expression, as they gaze upward 
out of the picture to the right. It is painted with a breadth of manner and a 
rapidity of execution which has grasped firmly and rendered faithfully the 
feeling of mind as well as of body.

DOMINIQUE FELIX DE VUILLEFROY 


1841— 
THE END OF THE DAY 


THE end of a long summer day: a day of wearisome toil under a burning 
sun. Over a tract of rough country covered with long coarse grass the dying 
sun, just dipping brilliant red beneath the horizon, sends a last ray, which 
touches the waters of a small pool in the foreground, imbuing them with a 
crimson glow which warms and vivifies the cold gray reflection of the sky 
overhead. A team of oxen fastened together by a heavy wooden yoke stands 
drinking in the shallow pool, the rippled surface of which reflects their 
shapes in grotesque caricatures. At the edge of the pool a young peasant 
stands leaning upon a staff, his attitude expressive of weariness and an 


intense desire for rest.

AN OLD MILL AT VILLE D’AVRAY 


THE calm waters of a mill stream run through the centre of the picture. 
On the right a narrow path skirts the top of the embankment, shaded by a 
row of willows, beneath which sit a couple of young children. In the back- 
ground, stretching across the water and for some distance to the right, are 
the mill buildings, an irregular pile of gable ends and red brick walls, wherein 
the archways through which the water flows show like darksome caverns. 
On the left is the farther bank of the stream, affording a glimpse of sunlit 
meadow stretching to the horizon, with a few willow trees growing on the 
water’s edge. The sky is asummer blue, partly covered by a few white clouds,

TWILIGHT 


From the borders of a Pocky pool in the right foreground : a woman wends — 
; her way over a broken piece of ground towards a clump of trees which’ ‘- 
a crown a small eminence. The tender greens of the foliage merge by insen- 
a sible gradations into the bluish green of the trees and the reflection of the 
: blue heaven in the water. The gentle glow of evening tones down the more 
4 garish colors of the day-time, and the light shining from a sky of tender 
e azure, in which float a few beautiful masses of white cloud, lends an air of © 

; peace to all the scene. On the right the view extends over gently undulat-_ 

: ing ground, past a small building, to the pore glowing pinks in the rays — 

; ] of the departing sun.

GRAY SKIES ON A SUMMER DAY 


Tue scene shows a shallow, weedy backwater, with the low-lying banks 
running out into the water, and forming a number of islets which lie half- 
submerged, showing the green of their vegetation an inch or two above 
the surface of the pools. In the centre of the picture a few herons are stand- 
ing, searching for their food beneath the limpid water. To left and right 
groups of large trees grow close to the water’s edge, while in the centre of 
the picture they recede into the dim distance, the varying tones of the 
masses of green foliage contrasting with the brighter green of the grass and 
the bluish tints of the distant trees. The sky is covered with a curtain of 
white clouds, whose beauty is intensified by the glimpses of deep blue 
heavens beyond.

FADING LIGHTS 


A BROAD river runs across the foreground of the picture, bends to the right, 
and is lost to view around a curve of the steep wooded banks. The light of 
day is fast disappearing, and the low level clouds which fringe the darkening 
sky are flecked here and there with the ruddy glow from a sun which has 
already disappeared from view. The bordering trees cast a deep shadow over 
the quiet waters, and the river flows on in semi-darkness, relieved only by 
the silvery gleam of a wavelet caused by a number of ducks hurrying to- 
wards the bushes which fringe the water’s edge. The illusive charm of even- 
ing, the flickering of lights and shadows, the variations of the sombre tones 
of a large body of water when the borrowed grace of the sunlight is with- 
drawn, all these Daubigny shows us here, with the directness and simplicity 
of a lover of nature whose life was spent in close communion with all her 
diverse manifestations.

THE POOL 


In the depths of.a forest of silver birches lies a small clearing, almost circu- 
lar in shape, on the nearer side of which is a tiny pool, fringed with tufts 
of coarse grass. The silver tones of the tree trunks are strongly accentuated 
by broad splashes of light which filters through the interlacing boughs over- 
head. The open glade is in full sunlight, and above the branches of the encir- 
cling trees a small patch of blue sky, covered with rolling clouds, appears, and 
is reflected in the depths of the pool below. The figure of a peasant woman 
in white cap and blue apron appears in the middle distance, her back bowed 
under the weight of a large bundle, her costume lending a pleasing note of 


color to the prevailing tones of the composition.

A TENDER little scene, showing in every line the capacity for poetic senti- 
ment and engaging frankness so characteristic of the artist. In the golden 
glow of a summer day a little group of maidens recline upon the banks of 
a river, resting after a dip in the cool waters. Their robes are loosely 
gathered round their lower limbs, leaving their shoulders and bosoms bare 
to the balmy air. Masses of spring flowers are in their laps, as though they 
intend later to weave wreaths for their fair hair. The ground dips to the blue 
of the river, and beyond rises gently into rounded hills, their outlines 
rendered indistinct by their cloak of verdant forest growth.

EDGE OF THE FOREST 


In a picturesque glade on the edge of the forest of Fontainebleau lies a 
shallow pool, surrounded with tall yellow grass and sedge, which is ap- 
proached across a rough rock-strewn piece of ground by a narrow footpath 
leading through a gap in a belt of trees, some of whose branches are faintly 
touched with yellow, indicating the approach of autumn. A peasant woman, 
her back bowed beneath the weight of a heavy bundle of fagots, crosses the 
path in the middle distance. The foliage of the trees stands out clearly against 
a summer sky covered with fleecy clouds, their trunks being for the most 
part outlined against the darkness of the undergrowth, with here and there 
a patch of sunlight accentuating the gloom beyond. The placid waters of 
the pool reflect the blue of the sky above and the foliage of the trees on the 
farther side.

A RAY OF SUNSHINE 


A sANpy road, deep sunk between its confining banks, runs from the right 
foreground to the middle distance, where it reaches the level of the sur- 


rounding country. The scene extends, a wild stretch of common, until it 


‘merges into the blue horizon lying darkling beneath the shadow of the heavy 
clouds, behind which the sun has obscured his face, while to right and to left 
dense thickets of trees add their shade to the prevailing gloom, their masses 
lending balance to the composition. On the right, beneath the shadow of the 
trees, stands a lowly one-storied cottage with thatched roof and rough-cast 
walls, towards which an old woman is slowly wending her way. Through a gap 
in the heavy masses of vapor with which the sky is covered appears a broad 
patch of blue near the zenith, whence a ray of sunlight darts down and with 
fine dramatic effect illumines a broad patch of road, the scarlet cloak of the 
woman and the white wall of the cottage, heightening and accentuating the 
impression of an approaching storm.

MOONRISE 


A vivip and unusual rendering of a phase of nature majestic and awe-

sity of earth and sky, overwhelm the mind, as the great orb of the har- 
vest moon, rising above the edge of a narrow belt of cloud, shines from a 
misty sky, and, half revealing, half concealing the surrounding objects, lends 
to them the mystery of deep shadow and forms ill-defined. The details of a 
lonely foreshore, the rocks covered with slimy seaweed and the pools of 
water between the rocks emerge from the obscurity, and on the left a con- 
fused mass of dark shadows gradually assumes the outlines of a small cot- 
tage. A broad path of light is cast by the moon across a large pool in the 
foreground, and a candle gleams in the cottage window, the only sign of life 
in the desolate scene.

their trunks, of which one catches a glimpse here and there. In the middle

EVENING TWILIGHT 


THE picture shows the banks of a wide river, lying glassy still at the end of 
a summer’s day. Not a ripple disturbs the surface of the water, save that 
made by a small flat-bottomed boat, the occupant of which is leaning over 
the side, setting his night-lines. The sun has dipped below the horizon 
behind a clump of noble trees on the right of the picture, and its last rays 
shine blood-red through the interstices of the lower branches. The sky is 
covered by a light film of fleecy cloud, from the under surface of which a 
broad patch of light is reflected on to the surface of the water, giving it the 
appearance of molten silver, affording a strong contrast with the deep shadow 
cast by the trees and low-lying bank of the stream. The whole scene breathes 
an air of ineffable peace and calmness.

of a daily round of duties, womankind ‘as well as man, and of whose being ‘

A CHARACTERISTIC rendering of the sombre magnificence of the twilight 
hour. This manifestation of nature was ever full of attraction to Rousseau, 
and under the spell of its mystery and grandeur he has left us some of the 
most famous of his masterpieces. Over a marshy plain with a pool of water 
in the foreground the view extends to a belt of low trees in the middle dis- 
tance. Here and there in the line of trees, one or two, more noble than their 
fellows, rear their heads high above the surrounding growth, their verdure- 
clad limbs forming a delicate tracery against the golden sky. The sun has 
already sunk beneath the horizon, leaving the meadows in gloom, but touch- 
ing the higher branches with diffused light, and giving a ruddy tinge to the 
lower edge of a heavy bank of clouds.

the cloud-forms is the still blue of the sky, affording a pleasant foil to the. 
vivid contrasts of light and shade in the cloud itself. Through the semi-ob- 


scurity the glint of water on the right betrays the presence of a small river, 


running between shallow banks, and fringed with trees which add the shade ; 


of their branches to the gathering gloom. In the foreground is a group of 
dogs, the biggest of which holds a hare in his mouth, and proposes to 
defend it against all comers, although a fox-terrier with bristly back and 
quivering tail is apparently anxious to argue the point.

SUMMER MORNING ON THE OISE 


A WELL-KNOWN picture, full of atmosphere and sunshine, and expresteal in aa ai, 
lighter and more joyous vein than some of the more sombre and majestic a 
examples of Rousseau’s art. The scene shows a low level meadow bathed in : : 
the calm light of a perfect day in early summer. Through the centre of the — 
landscape flow the sparkling waters of the Oise, upon the bosom of which is : aes. 
the white sail of a small boat. Along the banks, and scattered here and there © ee 

through the fields on either side, are trees, willows, alders, poplars, the bright — | 
green of their foliage reflected in the mirror of the still waters. A man sits ae 
with his dog near to two girls, and on the farther bank a few cattle come 
down to drink. The vibrant air is full of light; the color of the sky is ex- 
quisitely delicate, and the modelling of the fleecy cloud forms, flecked here 
and there with the rosy tinge of a declining sun, is rendered with great 
fidelity and nicety of expression. wee

water’s edge, leaving a natural clearing which is thickly grown with deep 
green mossy grass and studded here and there with large boulders, the 
lighter tones of which stand out strongly in the prevailing gloom. The time 
is near evening, and on the right the crystal clearness of the sky is tinged 
with the ruddy glow of the departing sun.

A Broan, flat meadow stretches across the picture, dotted with shady trees, 4 : 
and extending as far as the eye can see till it reaches a line of blue hills in 


the far distance. It is early summer, and the vegetation is rank and lush; 


every leaf is full and juicy, and the uncertain skies give promise of frequent 9 


showers. In the foreground a large red cow lies full face to the spectator, — = 
her head somewhat raised, her flanks enjoying the sunlight which plays fall 

upon her. Close behind her is a companion, white with a brown head, and 
others are scattered here and there, standing or lying, feeding or placidly rumi- 
nating. A number of seagulls fly low, beneath a sky which is covered with © : 


heavy rain-clouds, a small patch of blue appearing at intervals between them. — :

VERDANT PASTURES 


THE time is early spring; the grass is green and juicy, every leaf is full 
of sap, and the vegetation as yet unscorched by the parching breath of 
summer. Ankle deep in the shallow waters of a little river which runs 
across the foreground of the picture, makes an abrupt turn on the right 
round a clump of trees, and disappears in the distance, stand two fine cows, 
one red and the other white. Lazily they nuzzle at each other in the full sun- 
shine, their tails swinging from side to side, while their flanks seem to heave 
with lazy enjoyment. In the background a number of other cows are crop- 
ping the long grass, while one of their number is slowly approaching the 
drinking place. The view extends over a level meadow to a line of dark trees 
on the horizon, with here and there one taller than its fellows standing out 
against the sky, which is covered with a bank of heavy gray clouds, except 
for a broad patch of blue at the zenith.

| SHEEP AND SHEPHERD 


On the slope of a hill on which grow a few gnarled and stunted trees as 
small flock of sheep are busy cropping the short blades of grass. Near at hand 

a tall peasant in blue blouse and sabots, guardian of the flock, sits upon the © 
ground, half leaning upon his staff, and gazing towards the open sea, which, — 
hidden by the shoulder of the hill, extends upon the left to the horizon. Be- 

side him sits his dog, a thin, black beast of nondescript ancestry. There is a Sh 
note of movement among the sheep, and a couple are slowly making their * 
way to a small pool in the foreground. The sky is overcast and threatening, 2 

and on the left the sun casts a watery gleam upon the sea, breaking in heavy 
rollers on the beach.

THE SHEPHERD 


On the slope of a grassy knoll, down which meanders a tiny rivulet, are 
scattered a flock of sheep, some quietly cropping the grass, some lying at 
their ease on the soft turf. The blue-smocked shepherd sits close by, leaning 
on his staff, while next to him his dog, his companion and helper, lies sleep-_ = 
. ing. Behind the little flock stands a group of noble oak trees, their gnarled — 
and twisted limbs showing in lighter colors against the dark background of 


their foliage. The sun is sinking and the light streams in a mellow flood from _ 


over the shoulder of the hill, accentuating the deep tones of the shadows of 


the trees, while it casts a golden outline around those objects which stand | 
out against it. The sky is entirely covered with a film of dark cloud, shading 


into lighter gray at the horizon.

THE WOUNDED TIGER 


THE artist here has found his theme in one of those wild and rocky land- 
scapes of Northern Africa of which he has left us so many examples in his 
paintings. On the right the line of craggy rocks stretches, blue gray against 
the sky, from the foreground to the dim distance, their precipitous sides so 
steep as to afford for the most part no foothold for man or beast. On a grassy 
knoll in the centre of the picture lies a magnificent tiger, rolling on his side 
and clawing up the turf in his agony. His tail is extended and lashes from 
side to side in wrath, and his fine head is uplifted, seeking to discover whence 
came the fatal stroke, the massive jaws parted in a roar of defiant rage. 
From the deep blue of the sky the sun pours his rays over the scene, 
intercepted only by a few fleecy clouds floating high above the earth.

THE TURKISH BUTCHER SHOP 


Tue scene shows the red-tiled open-fronted shop of an Eastern merchant, 
the interior giving an impression of grateful shade against the brilliant 
sunshine without. On the outer sill, raised some two feet above the road- 
way, a dusky barefooted man reclines against a pillar which supports the 
roof, a long pipe between his fingers, his face turned from the spectator. At 
the rear of the shop a narrow doorway gives on to a small courtyard behind, 
surrounded by high whitewashed walls, wherein the proprietor of the shop 
is busy skinning the carcass of a sheep which hangs upon a hook in the 
wall. The bright sunlight falls full upon the courtyard and filters through a 
grated window high up in the walls of the shop. In the road in front a 
couple of dogs, the scavengers of the East, patiently await the offal which, 
as they know from long experience, will shortly be thrown to them.

THE BLUFF 


THE picture shows a commonplace subject handled in a broad and convincing 
manner. On the right the escarpment of a lofty hill, crowned with noble 


___ trees, rears itself against the sky. The nearer side of the hill has been found 
to contain a deposit of sand, and the ruthless hand of man has cut deep into 
it till nought remains but the ugly yellow scar of a sandpit, protected at the 
top by a rail fence and extending the whole length of the hill. In the fore- 


ground several groups of people walk along a road which runs across the 
picture and disappears round the shoulder of the hill. On the left the view 


_ extends over a broad, well-wooded valley, with a clump of large trees in the 


middle distance, the landscape stretching without a break till the blue-gray 


_ line of the horizon meets the gray of the cloud-covered sky.

BENEATH a dark and lowering sky, a river swollen by autumnal rains glides 
swiftly in irresistible mass between its confining banks and, dashing over a 
low ridge of rocks, loses itself in a confused mass of whirling eddies below. 
On the right the ground rises sharply from the water’s edge, clothed in som- 
bre dun-colored foliage, the dark tones of a group of trees accentuating the 
lighter colors of the hillside, touched here and there with the rays of a 
watery sun. Beyond, the banks grow lower and are here and there sub- 
merged. The sky is covered with a blanket of heavy moist cloud, giving 
promise of more rain to come, and on the far horizon its edge is touched by 
a gleam of silver which is reflected here and there on the surface of the
